Shoot with Molly

By Amber Roberts

Evaluation on how it went

Over all I think that this shoot went a lot better than expected. Before I started the shoot it began to rain, but I was happy that I had planned to use this location; as it has a shelter so either way I was able to take my pictures for Metal Entity. I did enjoy taking the images as Molly was amazing to use. She came at the correct time and wore everything that I wanted her too. Which made it look even better. When I asked her to pose like a metal head, she used the metal sign \m/ which looks amazing in some of the images. The only down side from this is she had her eyes closed in some great images, but I still managed to use some of them in my production work. I have to say slides 7,9, 10, 10 & 16 were the best images from the shoot. Creating the lighting was the hardest thing to do as there wasn't any plug sockets, I wasn't able to use lights to create the perfect lighting. But that didn't stop me. I think that the shots I captured are all different as I had close ups, mid shots, and many other ones. I used a Sony alpha A290 camera and the quality of the images are a lot better than I expected them to be and I am happy with the final outcome of them. I have edited them all in Photoshop and haven't made any drastic changes just simple things like brightness and contrast, and black and white as I felt the images looked perfect with out the added airbrush look. As I wanted Amie to have a natural look not some fake

Barbie look. As this not what images should look like. Images should be

tweaked slightly but not changing them into a whole new person. Image taken from doves campaign for real

beauty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2gD80jv5ZQ
